Pantry
The Pantry fits most people as a place you can come once every week and pick up a couple bags of groceries. Our Pantry is open to all who need food assistance. You will need to fill out a questionnaire and sign a release the first time you come, and we will visit your home sometime after that, but you will receive food that day and once every week for as long as you need it.

Delivery for Elderly and Disabled
Are you a senior or shut-in due to disability and need to have food delivered to you? We’ve started a delivery service just for you. This is a front door drop-off only service, once a week with select items we have available in our warehouse. It is up and going, and orders will be processed as fast as possible. You will be asked to confirm your age or disability with documentation you can submit with the form on the page, via email, or by mailing your documents to us.
HHP Healthy Living Project
The HHP Healthy Living Project will start in the near future to provide information and training on how you and your entire family can live healthier lives. This will include healthy cooking classes, and classes and seminars on other health issues. From time to time, other products that can assist in healthy living will be made available to the members of this project.
Living on the Streets
Your needs are different when you are Living on the Streets. We recognize this, so starting in late April 2012 we brought what you needed to you 7 days a week with our mobile food pantry.
Student Food Assistance Program (for College and Grad Students)
This program is for college and university students (undergrad or graduate) who do not have enough food. It can be tough to buy food after you’ve paid for rising tuition, textbooks, parking fees, and all those other college expenses. Sometimes student aid isn’t enough to feed yourself, too, and it’s tough to concentrate on classes when you’re hungry.
The San Bernardino area, home to several colleges and universities, has a high rate of students who are struggling to get by. Helping Hands Pantry’s Student Food Assistance Program is here to help. Contact us and a sign-up form will be sent to you, or download the College and Grad Student Assistance Program PDF.
Paws to Feed
When you sign up for the Pantry and mark that you have pets on the questionnaire, you are automatically signed up for Paws to Feed. We also have a program for the pets of the homeless. Contact us for more information.
